Vitamins Information (Home) > Quick Information > Cysteine


Cysteine is a nonessential amino acid (protein building block), meaning that cysteine can be made in the human body. Cysteine is one of the few amino acids that contains sulfur. This allows cysteine to bond in a special way and maintain the structure of proteins in the body. Cysteine is a component of the antioxidantglutathione. The body also uses cysteine to produce taurine, another amino acid.
